MD records

Release Date :  9th Nov 2020

The latest recent release from MD records featuring two tracks from Patty and the Emblems out for the first time on vinyl.

Limited release. Only 500 pressed with no reruns.

Hailing from Camden in New Jersey, Pat Russell was the core of the Patty (Patti) and the Emblems and was supported by Eddie Watts, Vance Walker and Alexander Wildes. This 45 brings together the heavyweights of Leroy Lovett, Frank Bendinelli and Leroy Huff (of Gamble and Huff fame) with the beautiful vocals of Patty.

Both sides are taken directly from the tapes in Franks vaults. The a-side Love will come was issued on CD format in 1999/2000 but now for the first time you can put the 45 into your collection. The vocals from Patty climb and soar with the harmonies from the Emblems holding her up and sounding as fresh today as the day they were recorded.

Flip it over and you can hear Patty at the start of the recording talking to Leroy Lovett about what she wants in the song She's So Confused, before clearing her throat and launching into a response song to mixed up, shook up girl. From the first beats, hand claps and doo wop inspired harmonies this track just bounces through as a motownesque dancer of the finest calibre. 

Listen above.
